gramps 8d23502220 fix(trax): the fader now actually changes the level — and the meter follows it
Reported: pegging the TRAX fader changes nothing audible, the ladder never reaches red, and the
ladder does not scale with the fader.

Cause (two defects in the same setters):
- UserGain wrote the OUTPUT DEVICE's volume. NAudio's WaveOut ignores that, so the fader was inert.
- LocalGain (the desktop-mute follow) recomputed the sample-chain volume WITHOUT the user gain, so
  every duck/mute silently discarded whatever the creator had set.

Fix: one `EffectiveVolume(user, local)` = MusicVolume × user × local, applied to the sample chain by
both setters. The meter sits AFTER that stage, so the ladder now scales with the fader and can reach
the peak band on a loud track — exactly what pegging should look like. Max user gain is +6 dB, so
"pegged" means the file at unity, not a magic boost.

Guard: MusicLevelTests pins the arithmetic (default half, pegged double, mute multiplies to zero),
that the user gain survives the mute follow, and that nothing may drive the output device's volume
again — the no-op that made this invisible.

Monetization policy locked + dev pause recorded (docs changeset, 2026-08-14): the one paid line becomes an annual subscription — early access $49.99/yr → $99/yr list at GA, grandfather-while-subscribed with lapse → list on renewal (no escalation matrix); free tier unchanged (branding flash is the free tier's billboard + no Alerts, which is the one paid feature); billing NOT locked to itch.io (hunted fact: itch.io has no native subscription billing — candidates Gumroad, whose native affiliate program is the tiebreaker, and Lemon Squeezy); support = in-app bug-report → git issues with a when-I-get-around-to-it cadence + emergency patches. ai.md Monetization section rewritten + stale paid-unlock seams fixed (L115 subscription-entitlement wording, the About hub's tabled billing PremiumUrl seam); TASKS.md gains TASK 23 (Monetization — billing provider decision, unlock mechanism with lapse→flash-returns enforcement, in-app bug-report loop, Unlock Premium seam lighting, Alerts gating, and line-item pointers for the early-access strategy, affiliate/ads phase 2, and the channel revival); HANDOFF.md records the decisions + the development pause (resume streaming = pair-programming dev streams via OBS + The Division 2 under the gramps/GOAT persona, 67 and gaming since 1981, 3D-printing content retired; dogfood switch to ytLlive once TASK 5 lands; resume point = TASK 5). Stale itch.io assertions corrected across comments and indexes (MainViewModel.cs PremiumUrl/IsPremium seams, MainWindow.xaml tooltip, AboutHubTests comment, ViewModels/index.md, TASK 9 out-of-scope note). Build 0 warnings, 196 tests passing
